Will the freehold then be transferred for a nominal consideration (not exceeding £100) to the Management Company? The Vendor must covenant to keep unoccupied units in good repair until long leases are granted therefore. Where there is an Undertaking being granted there is the risk of forfeiture of the Headlease subject to relief if one or more of the Underlessees are willing to accept the original Head Lessee’s obligations as otherwise relief will be denied to the Underlessees. The only alternatives are the Head Lessor agreeing not to forfeit the Headlease or the Head Lessee guaranteeing to the Underlessees that it will not be in breach of the Headlease. If there are lifts in the building, please confirm that the owners of flats on the ground and basement floors will not be required to contribute towards the cost of maintenance and renewal. Where service of notices and proceedings can be at the property demised please confirm that this can be amended to include simultaneous services at the Lessees’ solicitors’ offices where the Lessee from time to time is not resident in the UK - such solicitors may be varied by notice in writing to the Landlord from time to time but otherwise will be as previously specified.
I was recommended by numerous selling agents in Templecombe to choose a property lawyer using your seach tool. Is there a financial incentive for Estate Agents to promote your lawyers ahead of alternative conveyancing organisations?
We refuse to give any financial incentive for sending work in our direction. We thought it would be too underhand to pay a commission because members of the public would think, ‘How come the agent getting a kickback? Why am I not receiving any benefit too?’ So we decided to step away from that.

The best form of lease structure is where the freehold interest is owned by the leaseholders. In this situation the lessees have control and although a managing agent is often employed where the building is bigger than a house conversion, the managing agent acts for the leaseholders themselves. Where a Templecombe lease has fewer than eighty years it will impact the value of the flat. It is worth checking with your mortgage company that they are willing to go ahead with the loan given the lease term. A short lease means that you will most likely need a lease extension at some point and it is worth discovering how much this will be. Remember, in most cases you would be be obliged to have owned the residence for two years before you are entitled to exercise a lease extension.
